This slide presentation outlines a case study of industrial wastewater desalination and concentrate disposal barriers in Florida. Project background includes: a POTW in central Florida entered into a consent order
with the FDEP to lower its effluent specific conductance
in order to be in compliance with its discharge to a fresh
surface water;
an existing manufacturing facility must meet both
current and future POTW pretreatment requirements for
conductivity (TDS) and sodium levels; and,
URS conducted a desktop evaluation coupled with a
financial analysis of possible alternatives followed by a
treatability study and full-scale piloting. Topics outlined include: POTW Pretreatment Standards and
Facility's Current Effluent Water Quality; desktop alternative analysis; Phased Approach for POTW Compliance; Strategy A -
Initial Method for Conductivity Reduction; Full-Scale Pilot of Strategy A at Facility; Strategy B -
Additional Treatment for Conductivity Reduction; concentrate disposal options for Strategy B; concentrate disposal barrier of off-site hauling to another POTW, Off-Site Routing to Evaporation Ponds, Off-Site Hauling to a Permitted Industrial
Injection Well, On-Site Brine Disposal via Injection Well, and On-Site Brine Evaporation Using a Crystallizer. Includes tables, figures.
